The results of the particle simulation also indicated that the airflow characteristics, combined with deposition rates, cause the lower floors of a multi-story building to be exposed to higher fine particle concentrations compared with the upper floors of the building. A careful computer simulation study with reliable inputs for key simulation parameters, such as the particle penetration coefficient and deposition rate, may be capable of providing comprehensive insights for understanding particle transport in multi-story buildings. In this study, a field test on the reference building was conducted using the natural decay method to identify the particle size-resolved penetration coefficient and deposition rate; the obtained values were used as simulation parameters. ./cache/cord-253092-igic5pxc.txt ./txt/cord-253092-igic5pxc.txt
